    The ferrari drive was the most incredible thing I have ever done. Me and my family had a fantastic day out and we have so many memories to take away from the experience. All the staff were very friendly and made the whole experience something to remember. The drive itself was undescribable! I would definitely recommend it to others and there is no doubt that I will come back and do it again in the future! Thanks for such an incredible day!

    A Wonderful 50Th Birthday Present

    Awesome fun. As a lifelong car lover it was quite something to be given free reign to blast a Ferrari round the circuit. Made all the better by having minute by minute tuition, I really did learn something about taking the driving line through the corners. The icing on the cake was when I overtook the Lamborghini on my last lap!

    What Have I Been Missing All These Years!

    It was a wonderful treat from start to finish. The friendly professional staff made everything run like clockwork while still keeping the customers relaxed. The thrill of driving at speed in a classic Ferrari around Goodwoood was amazing, should have done it years ago. Just can't wait to do it again but may be Porsche or perhaps an Aston Martin?

    A Really Great Thrill

    My dad had the best time driving around the track it was well worth the money, and it was a great afternoon spent at Goodwood.

    Fabulous!!!!! What A Great 50Th Birthday Present

    I had a fantastic time. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. For the first time in my life I was able to drive a Ferrari 355 as fast as I could for 3 most memorable (and increasingly faster!) laps of Goodwood. The atmosphere is so exciting, everyone shares in each others' experiences and exchanges their stories with each other. The instructors ensure that you are fully aware of the car and its controls, and give clear and precise instruction to ensure that you get the most out of your drive. I can't say how much I enjoyed myself, it was incredible to get in and drive such a fast car. Thank you for such a great time, I will be back again.

    Safe And Well Organised

    Excellent experience. Professional pictures: very useful service. Encouraging instructor and impressive car. Left-hand drive/right hand gear change/'odd' Ferrari gearbox in a non 308 could have 'thrown' some drivers. I found it challenging but was also preoccupied with not making the wrong gear change in such an expensive car! All staff were friendly and very helpful. Well done.

    I'm Saving Up To Buy My Own Ferrari Now!

    I thoroughly enjoyed a fantastic 3 laps of historic Goodwood race track with me driving a Ferrari 348. The rain just about stopped for my turn in this historic car, but the water on the track made the photograph all the more impressive due to the spray from the tyres. I would recommend the experience to any classic car enthusiast.

    A 'Wow' Experience

    This was a 60th Birthday from my son and an experience to remember on a beautiful warm sunny October day. Managed to get over 110 mph on third lap. Everybody was so kind and informative. I was so proud of myself when I was told I did very well - remarkable coming from a male racing driver to a 60 year old WOMAN!

    Fabulous Present

    Wonderful present if you enjoy cars and racing. I would certainly go and buy this for myself. The instructor in the car was amazing. All in all a great day.

    Really Fantastic Experience For Me

    It was a great day for me as it was a gift from my fiance and I really enjoyed the experience. Everybody was really friendly and we bought 2 pics and a fleece as well.

    Thanks for a great day

    The whole day was a fabulous experience. The team were first class. They were very professional and friendly, even allowing family and friends to have photos taken with the cars before the drive, a nice touch. The circuit itself was a picture, being well maintained with a strong sense of history. The only downside was, it was over all too quickly, I could have driven all day! Thanks for a great day.
